    Reverse light switch.

    I got mine at Saturday. A little difficult to install with column in the car but I did it with a c-clamp. Was nervous about breaking it but it worked. I'd like to see it a little easier to push metal pin in but I'm sure the creators already tried that.

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Dead Dodge Garage Youtube channel likes the Pertronix ignition also. Any more crazy problems like this one I'll have to switch over. For now, I'm trying to keep the same way my Grandfathers did since they were both Chrysler guys when I was kids. Keeping it old school n original is great...

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    First, I want to give a everyone a BIG Thank You for taking your time to help me. Found the issue last night, it was the points. I'll pick up a new set or two today. (Feel free to stop reading. the rest is just me babbling) I don't know what happened to them but the arm, that rides in the...

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Didn't do either! No worries!! And nothing wrong with repeating to me... I've watched a few videos on this issue and it didn't sink in until making this post and a fellow C Body member said it. Thank you for all your help. And Thank You to everyone else. I'm dying to work on this issue and...

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Yes...just learned the ballast is bypassed while starting the car. Learned that after buying a few and trying everyone AND also learned if only the ballast is bad, the car would start and run until you release the key. Once you release the key the car would shutoff.

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    I have it downloaded. The points are about 6 months old, so they have a few hundred miles...says under 500 or700. I'll jump the battery to the +coil and see what happens. Didn't know I could do that one but I'll try it very quickly. Sounds like that will tell me if the issue is the coil or...

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Mike, Thanks for helping. I beleive, if the bulkhead was the issue I'd have other problems such as headlights/blinkers/engine wouldn't turn off/heater fan wouldn't turn on. But I could be wrong. I have a total of 5 BRs (ballast resistor), 4 being brand new. (Please don't ask why.) Four...

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    OK. Thanks. I look at that tomorrow or this weekend. didn't think to read volts with points open and closed

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Ok...that means I don't totally know how the BR works. I'll start looking at things after the BR, such as the coil n points n condenser

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Oh... 12v when the ignition was on. I didn't read the voltage while cranking. Didn't think too. I did check the coils resistance and it was 1.2ohms

    Ballast Resistor Voltage (Solved. The points failed)

    Hey All, I'm having a problem with starting my 68 Plymouth Fury 3 with a 383. It cranks over fine but no spark. I keep going back to the ballast resistor(BR). I'm reading 12volts on both sides of the BR and I've tried 4 new BRs. I'm also reading 12v on the + side of the coil. Three of the...

    Reverse light switch.

    How did you tap the hole? did you remove the steering column to tap it?

    Reverse light switch.

    ok...Great. wish I could get a printer and start playing...but the Mrs wouldn't be thrilled after all the parts/tools/money to get my Plymouth Fury running and on the road.

    SPF, any updates on the 3D printed part? If not, what do you think about sharing the 3D files? Maybe someone else could try it.
